Even several years after his death, Tito Puente’s classic ‘Oye Como Va’ still has enough clout to make a near perennially re-release.

Afro-Cuban music at its very best with the assistance of India’s dreamy vocal interplay variations of ‘Oye Como Va’ have been filling dancefloors — of the both cool and commercial variety — since it debuted back in 1995.

One of the first releases on the Big In Ibiza imprint — this actually the new UMM label’s morphed identity — it again stands every chance of mass acceptance, not least thanks to a great new mix package boasting versions from Andy BopH on an interesting electro-tip.

There’s also a Pedro De La Fiesta Remix that maximises the Latin spirit to the full riding a bassline, not unlike Inner City’s ‘Good Life’.
